To strengthen rural livelihood resource base for rural poor through creation of durable assets is an important objective under the MGNREGS. With an objective to improving the transparency and to enhance the visibility of the programme, MoRD, Govt of India has designed a unique solution by integrating space technology and asset tracking management solution under the project GeoMGNREGA with a vision to make geotagged asset data under MGNREGStransparent and available in the public domain which is accessible to all. The Geotaggin is carried with the mobile application.

The objective was creatinga Geographical Information System (GIS) solution to visualize analyze and explore such asset related data and manage them more effectively for better implementation of the programme. The MGNREGS assets was geotagged in two phases

GeoMGNREGA Phase-I – One stage geotagging of the assets created before1st November 2017.

GeoMGNREGA Phase-II – This phase was rolled out from 1st November 2017, under this three-stage geotagging was carried out as follows

  1. Stage 1 (Before start of the work)
  2. Stage 2 (During the work)
  3. Stage 3 (After completion of work)

GIS-based planning under MGNREGS is an initiative of the Ministry of Rural Development which helps the Gram Panchayat to ensure a scientific & holistic approach for planning at the Gram Panchayat level. It is an important tool to ensure participatory planning at the implementation level. The GIS planning help to provide the geographical location of planned assets on a map, which integrates planning for works, optimises convergence plans and facilitates effective monitoring. At present 100 % GIS Planning is completed for the all GPS in the state.
